Caesar the Alien

Julius Caesar is the most famous name in Roman history. He
was born in what is now Italy
in 100 BC to an elite family of the RomanRepublic. He rose through the ranks
of the army to become a leading general. He was also a prolific writer and
historian. A lot of what we know about Iron Age Britain
comes from him. Caesar waged numerous wars of conquest against neighbouring territory
to expand Roman rule as far as he could. His greatest achievement was his
victory in the Gallic Wars where he conquered the land which is today France.
In true Illuminati fashion, he forced the defeated French leader, Vercingetorix,
to endure a humiliating ritual, throwing his weapons down at Caesar's feet. He
also invaded Britain
(No Boudica moment now; the actual conquest happened a century later under the Emperor
Claudius.). After his military campaigns he returned to Rome
across the River Rubicon and took power as the first Roman Emperor. He was
assassinated by a conspiracy at the "Ides of March", on March the 15th;
44 BC. As one of the most famous and powerful people in the world, there were
plenty of artistic images made of him during his lifetime and afterwards. Romans
were particularly good at stone sculpture and there are many statues and busts
of Julius Caesar. There are numerous descriptions of his face and voice from
those who knew him; but in the days before photography, for those who came
after him the question of what he truly looked like can never be answered in
full.

Nevertheless an anthropologist and archaeologist called Maja
d'Hollosy thinks she has answered the question. She has done this by scanning a
marble bust of Julius Caesar and adding in comparisons of other artistic depictions
of the man to produce a 3D assembled image of the closest estimate possible to
what he looked like. This is not as accurate as the method used to recreate
faces from skulls, as was recently done when Richard III's skeleton was found,
see: https://www.theguardian.com/uk/video/2013/feb/05/king-richard-iii-face-recreated-skull-video.
Caesar's body was unfortunately cremated so we have no skull to work with.
However, the rendering by Maja d'Hollosy is extraordinarily detailed. It shows
a man with the prominent nose Caesar was said to have had; other than that it
is a fairly ordinary face. What is remarkable about him is the shape of his
head. The upper cranium appears much larger and wider than usual. We know that Caesar
suffered from epilepsy and at one point caught an illness that sounds like
encephalitis caused by a tapeworm infestation; however he did not have hydrocephalus
or any of the known conditions that cause brain damage or deform a human skull.
A colleague of d'Hollosy's, Tom Buijtendorp, believes this strangely-shaped
head was caused by his difficult birth. Contrary to popular belief, Julius
Caesar was not born by Caesarean section; this refers to one of his ancestors.

It is true that difficult or prolonged births can cause newborn babies' head to
warp into a highly unusual shape, but it returns to normal soon after birth. In
order to permanently alter the shape of a person's skull, their head had to be
artificially constricted in the first couple of months of life, before their
skull bones are fully sealed; this used to be done in some cultures, such as
ancient South America. An alternative possibility is
that Julius Caesar was in fact not a human being, at least not completely. This
astonishing notion is more plausible than it looks at first glance. Many
ancient cultures produce images of royal personages as having highly bizarre
features, especially weird-shaped heads. Ancient Egyptian pharaohs often look
like that in sculptures and reliefs, see: https://www.ancient.eu/image/3451/.
Ancient mythology from all over the world speaks of the ruling classes of human
society being carefully cultivated and maintained bloodlines with ancestry that
included "sky gods" or "those who came down to the earth from
the heavens" etc. The best known of these legends is found in the Bible;
in Genesis 6:4 where we see the line:
"There were giants on the Earth in those days, when the sons of God saw
that the daughters of men were fair and took of them many wives who gave them
many heirs. These then grew into the men of might and renown". Could Julius Caesar be an alien
hybrid, a creature that is partly human, but also with some of its genetics
coming from an extraterrestrial source?

Hiya Mate, Ben! I love this blog and I'll just say how gutted I was to miss you Dreaming Saucers conference; I had to go to Malta for my job. Funny that, have you ever been to Malta? It is full of loads of sign and symbols of the Knights Templars. If I were you I'd keep a keen eye on Malta. I had to help engineers in Victoria on the island of Gozo. If was interesting when we went into the ancient sewer system. Anyway, did you know that there is a plaque on Walmer seafront that tells you that that point was were Julius Caesar first come aground on Britain?
